Force Icon Editor to Unload - Linking to missing file in resource folder under LabVIEW installation. #29

Open JayKayAce opened 3 months ago

The tooling "Force Icon Editor to Unload" is linking to a non-existing VI in LabVIEW \resources..., This is present the first time a user decides to unload the Icon editor.

I think the tooling should load and execute "\labview-icon-editor\resource\plugins\NIIconEditor\Miscellaneous\Icon Editor\Get Icon Editor Context.vi" with a relative path instead.

Workaround: find and select the function inside the resources folder when LabVIEW searches for that.

The issue occurs because "Force Icon Editor to unload.vi" is called inside "Prepare LV to Use Icon Editor Source.vi" here

One way to solve the issue would be to load the Get Icon Editor Context into memory using the relative path before calling and running "Force Icon Editor to unload.vi" by reference using Run VI.

This issue is fixed already

could this be related to not setting the localhost.library paths token before opening the project? i verified this on the main branch and i am not seeing this issue. @JayKayAce
